Comments: Of course I made changes. The original recipe called for celery, bell peppers, low-fat mayo and low-fat ranch dressing. It also called for 4 1/2 cups of uncooked pasta. I cut that down to 3 cups, used regular mayo and left out the celery and bell peppers. Reason - I didn't have any on hand. Didn't matter. I also added the cheese which added just another flavor. My neighbor went out of the country for a few weeks and left me her dill weed plant to watch while she was gone. I used some if it to make this dish. The fresh dill was the key to this dish being such a success. Every bite has you wanting another. You can't beat this one.
